I'm so embarrassed to be associated with this country. I've only grown less and less patriotic as time goes by
I literally saw a comment about a month ago on Lemmy saying "what's next, wrestling matches in the white house?" Or something like that.
Whoever you were, you fucking called it
- They've been discussing this for the past couple of months at least though.
President Camacho approves
- At least camacho listened to tiny Head smart guy.
  Yes we are in the timeline where the stupidest most over the top attempt at playing a stupid president would be a better candidate than the current president.
  
  I just meant the MMA bit. He was a champion!
  
  But we do have smart guy. Elon Musk will solve all our problems
We live in a joke of a country
How is this not the Idiocracy timeline? I'd anything it feels like the pace of the "dumbing down" is too fast.
- The president in Idiocracy sought the help of someone smart.
  Y’all need to remember that and realize we are way past this movie.
  
  He could also form coherent sentences, was in Terry Crews-shape, and didn't shit himself once. We're already well into Idiocracy 2: Electric Boogaloo territory.
  
  and it was the AI assigning jobs to people too.
- Idiocracy would be a vast improvement over our current predicament, no joke.
  
  Ignorant but willing to learn. And laugh about farts, not violence.
  IIRC. Maybe I should re-watch it.
  
  Yeah, there weren't leagues of malevolent rich assholes seeking to make the world worse for their own profits. Just a bunch of idiots who apparently forgot how to think.
- Absolutely, idiocracy was too optimistic. In their version, it took 500 years to get there.
  We'll be there in a generation, maybe 2. (If we have that many generations.)
- Trump/Epstein files*
- Camacho would be such an improvement on reality nowadays...
  
  Ya, at least he recognized there was someone out there smarter than him and brought him in as an advisor.
- I hate how increasingly accurate this movie has become.
  
  As is usually pointed out, the similarities are not strong.
  President Camacho actually wanted to help his people, hired the smartest person he could find, and listened to his advice.
Release the Trump/Epstein files.
UFC started to become fascist, absolutely ruinimg the sport. UFC In the facist house
- We need more politically and philosophically astute sports.
How tacky.
When are these “Alpha Males” going to turn on the pedo in chief because they certainly look like a bunch of beta cucks right now
Probably just a coincidence that Paramount is purchasing UFC exclusive steaming rights in a seven year deal.
- skydance a trumper, trying to save the dying stream industry, trying to get the conservative audience on board.
  without TREK, and south park, Theres no reason to even have paramount.
Dana White at the inauguration was such a fever dream experience.
- his creation of trying to make the trashy SLAP-fighting a thing should tell you as much, he mustve seen the UFC is declining, and need a new grift.
UFC to host first-ever fight event at the White(trash) House
How male and masculine.
- Trump must really have a huge penis eh?! What a big boy.
- Yeah, watching two ripped tattooed dudes wrestle in their underwear while inside a literal cage. Macho af
  
  My favorite thing is taking pictures of them grappling, then putting a black censor bar over the trunks so it looks like they're having sex. Turns out it's really really easy to make it look gay(er).
its basically glorified bumfights, allegedly he doesnt pay most of his fighters well, unless they are the face of the company.
Truly Dystopian
Ackshuly, isn't dystopia in the future? So, what is this then? Oh yeah, fascism.
This is the best thing Trump has done this term
Was the WWF (or whatever the criminal wrestling organization goes by these days) booked?
